ADIPEC 2022 STRATEGIC CONFERENCE
ADIPEC 2022 will bring together policy makers, energy leaders and industry professionals for an unparalleled opportunity to share insights on the latest trends affecting the global energy ecosystem including geopolitical shifts, the evolving global economy, energy supply and next generation energy solutions.
With the return of the Conference of Parties (COP) to the Middle East by way of COP27 and COP28, ADIPEC is positioned to advance the industry’s ambitions in relation to climate change, the energy transition and net-zero energy systems along with the business and operating model changes required to support them. Recognising accompanying talent agendas, innovation ambitions and a commitment to authentic leadership are equally critical in ensuring success as the energy market pivots more quickly than ever before.
Overview
Energy markets are undergoing significant challenges accompanied by geopolitical shifts affecting economic growth and energy security, redefining the energy world as we know it. Amidst the global turmoil, we have seen an elevated focus on climate change, sustainability, and the reassessment of investment priorities in global energy markets. In particular, COP26 has highlighted the progress and actions needed to meet climate change ambitions and to define the industry’s future. Leaders, organisations and businesses are now expected to have clearly articulated strategies and commitments on sustainability, climate change and decarbonisation. New technologies, strategic investments, low-carbon solutions, and government policies are setting the pace for change, creating a new energy ecosystem designed to facilitate differentiated, impactful results.

As we approach the two pivotal COP meetings in Egypt and the United Arab Emirates, in 2022 and 2023, global leaders will have to balance the challenges of achieving net-zero targets by 2050 with the need for short-term energy security and affordability in their deliberations and agreed declarations. For the energy industry, the two meetings present unique opportunities to spotlight practical, innovative solutions for mitigating the effects of climate change.
To address the structural shifts, industry challenges and market disruptions, energy companies have no choice but to reinvent themselves. Priorities include transforming the value chain, connecting and integrating upstream and downstream operations, remaking the customer experience and optimising costs.
These challenges, coupled with the broader energy transition, will require a new generation of leadership to manage through the new realities of the changing global energy landscape. Management teams will need to embrace the new in terms of political and market volatility, operational agility, workforce diversity, the transition from an analogue to digital organisation, and a focus on the customer and their need for low carbon, or no carbon energy solutions.
Strategic Conference Themes
With a clear focus on five strategic themes, this year’s conference programme will provide critical insights into geopolitical trends, new energy solutions, innovations and technology developments:
1. The long-term impacts of geopolitics on the global economy and energy industry
2. The road to COP27 and COP28
3. An industry transitioning: adapting to the new fundamentals of supply, low carbon and new energy solutions
4. Innovation and the energy transition: pioneering a new era of technology development
5. The new management agenda: future of work and the leaders of tomorrow
